We caught up with the action on the river of a board and what looked to be about 7,000 in the pot. Martin Jacobson was facing a bet of 1,500 and took his time making the decision. Jacobson would end up making the call and mucked when his opponent tabled for two pair.
Jacobson now is sitting with just over 10 big blinds.
On two tables back to back we had a couple of double-ups.
The first one was with Phil Hellmuth who got it all in preflop for 2,150 roughly. He was called by another player that had apparently chipped up off him earlier. Hellmuth tabled and his opponent showed .
The board ran out , giving Hellmuth a flush and the pot. He exclaimed, "If you're gonna double someone up, you want to double up someone that can win the tournament."

We are one level away from the dinner break and, when Level 7 starts, late registration will be over. With roughly 1,680 entrants thus far and approximately 815 players remaining, the action is really starting to pick up. The dinner break will be for 90 minutes which means anyone looking to get in has less than two and a half hours to late register.
Though it's not always easy to tell in a room with over 1,000 players still looming, it would appear at the moment that the new chip leader is Dave Shober.
As we approached the table, Shober's stack already stood out among his tablemates but he was active in a hand as well.
There looked to be about 10,000 already in the pot of a board and Shober had bet 5,750 on the river. His opponent had a decision and eventually made the call. Shober tabled for a set of tens and his opponent nodded in submission, mucking his cards.
A player in late position raised to 900. Dmitry Yurasov was on the button and three-bet to 2,600. The original raiser then four-bet all in and Yurasov called.
Yurasov tabled and his opponent showed .
The board ran out and Yurasov's boat was more than enough to win the pot.
